Join the roomSunset, Arizona es un lugar poblado y antiguo pueblo en el condado de Navajo, Arizona, Estados Unidos, ubicado aproximadamente a cuatro millas al noroeste de Winslow. Fue establecido en 1876 por un grupo de miembros de la Iglesia de Jesucristo de los Santos de los Últimos Días bajo la dirección de Lot Smith. La sequía y las inundaciones repentinas que arrasaron las presas y los sistemas de irrigación provocaron fallas en los cultivos. Dejó de ser un pueblo para 1884 y los últimos colonos se mudaron en 1888. El cauce del río Little Colorado ahora corre donde solía estar el sitio del pueblo. Solo queda el pequeño cementerio de Sunset en la cima de la colina y forma parte del Parque Estatal Homolovi.
“There was strong music in the sky: the music of sunset. In the west, a wall of clear red amber through which the sun went blazing down. The remainder of the sky was smoky rose, a color like a perfume—musk. The earth had given up its tinctures. Heights and depths and long dunes were melting into the air.”
“Utu, shepherd of the land, father of the black-headed, when you go to sleep, the people go to sleep with you; youth Utu, when you rise, the people rise with you.”
“When the sun sets, who doth not look for night?”
“Long on the wave reflected lustres play.”
“When the sun is setting outside so that you cannot even recognise the hand in front of you, go indoors!”
